bump out of extreme curiosity
what album was it
could have messaged someone on the "has" list for a rip. I've asked people for a couple tracks, and someone asked me for a track only I had.

Don't tell' em, Opie. Hipster cred is the only capital you have left.

Fucking pleb trash.

Do NOT tell them or drop a zip.
Tell us OP, I'll consider buying it

>band doesn't exist anymore, nothing's in print, rips do not exist for this cd and no copies for sale anywhere

if this album has more than 10 ratings on rym it isnt obscure
>>63940617

not a ton of people use rym, and its mostly pretentious blowhards
>>63939433
lucky

>pretentious blowhard
Do these people ever grow up? I've seen snobs on there well into their 30's
>tfw no pale cocoon cassette
>obscure band i like finally releases an album
>they release it exclusively on floppy disc
>it can only be bought through a Czechoslovakian site
this is true pain
>>63940617
>if more than 10 out of 7,125,000,000 people have heard it, it's not obscure
literally less than two out of a million people
>find song on Youtube in some specialty playlist
>band doesn't have a RYM or Discogs page
>can't get their stuff on Soulseek, What, or Rutracker
